Oceanfront home in historic village, near Halifax & Peggys Cove, great for 2!
Welcome to Marshwind! Winter Monthly Rentals Available - message for more info. Before booking spring/summer please send me a note via the messages.
A great place for a couple to spend a relaxing, quiet week on the coast.
Located in the historic fishing village of Prospect, perched on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean - where crashing waves, granite rocks and wildlife surround you.
Open the door and you are just a few feet from the ocean's edge. Enjoy ocean views from every window in the home.
Stay inside and watch the tide ebb & flow from a comfy chair or venture out for one of the many coastal-trail or in-land hikes. Don't forget your camera, you will see beauty in the amazing vistas & abundant wildlife. Marvel at how plants and trees cling to the exposed granite coast. Interested in birds? You will be able to add many coastal and ocean bird species to your list. Birds often make a stop in our backyard during their migrations in the fall & spring. Winter brings an abundance of Northern ducks.
Bring your kayaks or rent from a local outfitter - launch them from the boat ramp in your back-yard and explore some of the best kayaking coastline in Eastern Canada - shipwrecks, deserted islands and lighthouses are just waiting for you to discover.
Marshwind is perfect for a couple looking to get away from it all and enjoy some peace at the seaside - while still being close enough to it all for day-trips to Nova Scotia's attractions.
In 2012 Marshwind, was used as a set location for the Hallmark movie 'Christmas with Holly'.

Lovely home in a quiet beautiful community located on an inlet. Fun to watch the tide changes impact on the marsh and the avian life. The home had everything we could ask for and could’ve comfortably slept many more than just the two of us. In the evenings we would make our way up to the 3rd floor to watch tv (30 steps total) and it was cozy too. Sitting on the back deck was a true pleasure and we had tea and coffee and breakfast out there while watching the ducks and cranes? Handy binoculars were provided for your viewing pleasure. Actually I don’t believe the hosts have forgotten any convenience… Even basics of staples were in the cupboards. Only complaint? There were no screens on any of the first floor windows and that prevented us from opening them for a fresh breeze on the main floor.

Peaceful Prospect
We loved our time at Marshwind in Prospect. The house was spotless and was equipped with everything we needed. The views of the marsh and the bay are spectacular! We love sitting outside having coffee in the morning and meals later in the day. We were perfectly situated where we could explore Peggy's Cove and Halifax and other surrounding places without having to drive very far. If you are looking for a peaceful stay while being surrounded by water, this is the place to visit.

A slice of heaven
Our collective blood pressure dropped 30 points when we walked in the door to what could easily be characterized as a "coastal paradise". The listing was true and accurate, the owners informative and hospitable, the home immaculate and even the neighbors (which can sometimes resent seasonal intruders) were welcoming and sharing of their knowledge of the area. A beautiful place to be sure... we wish had more time to spend.

South Shore Getaway
Property is in very close proximity to the South Shore attractions and gems as well as Halifax. The kitchen is well equipped; we did not need for anything. We arrived to a full blown Atlantic storm (thanks for the heads up Meagan). The storm door was a little tricky to manage the first couple of nights, slamming in the wind. We quickly learned to bolt it closed when we were at the house. Beautiful trails right outside the door. All in all, our stay made for a relaxing South Shore getaway.

Stay in Marshwinds, Prospect, Nova Scotia
This was a beautiful property situated on a quiet street populated by deer! The house had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed watching the tide come in and out daily from the back porch. Sunset is across the way, and worth the trip! Communication with Meagan was easy and timely. The views from the kitchen and bedrooms were spectacular! We hope to stay again!

Quiet stay in a beautiful location
Prospect Village is at land's end, where one can observe the tides come and go in their infinite variation, the land and diverse wildlife beautifully integrated. I particularly enjoyed the fog and all its mystery and stillness.
The house was spacious and refined, the kitchen well equipped. Very comfortable sleeping. Easy access to the city and other parts of Peggy's Cove area. A good home base for more adventuresome day trips as well.
We had a memorable time exploring near and far. All greatly appreciated! It would be a great pleasure to return.

Absolutely stunning home for our week long holiday. Everything we needed was provided by our wonderful hosts. Beautiful views from every window, but especially from the back deck. The bedrooms were spacious, and the beds were amazing to sleep on.
Highly recommend to anyone looking to visit Nova Scotia to stay at Marshwind as it was such a perfect, peaceful and welcoming home. The location was great and so wonderful to come home to after a long day of sightseeing.

Prospect Vacation
We absolutely loved our stay at Marshwind. It is a beautiful house and property with everything you could need. We loved early mornings looking out over the water and the coastal hike was great! Meagan provided many helpful suggestions which we were able to take advantage of. We were able to easily travel to Lunenburg and Peggy’s Cove, as well as to Halifax for supper one evening. This was our first trip to the East Coast and our holiday was wonderful thanks in large part to our stay at Marshwind. We would love to stay again and would not hesitate to recommend to others!

Heaven on earth
This was our second stay at this wonderful property and if we could rate it higher than a 5, we definitely would! It is clean, perfectly appointed and tastefully decorated. And that would be enough to give it a 5 star rating. But oh, the views!! From every room of the house!! The darling little fishing village of Prospect Bay is idyllic. Straight out of a novel. And the neighbors were delightful! Just a hop and a skip from great restaurants in Halifax and Peggy's Cove. We drove 2+ days each way to stay here for 7 days. 5 days of driving for a 7 day stay. And it was worth every mile. Just wish we had longer. But thankful for the time we had! Thank you Meagan and Scott for sharing this beautiful spot!

Por qué eligió esta propiedad
Prospect Village is simply magical. We had lived in the Village for several years and knew that we never wanted to leave. We jumped at the chance to buy this 150 year old Fisherman's Cape home and then proceeded to bring it back to life. We restored it's original charm with an architectural flair and updated it with modern, eco-friendly conveniences. Living in Prospect is like living in a wildlife park - with the ocean just steps from the home, you can sit back with your tea and watch wildlife in their natural enviroment. If you want to get a bit closer to the action - there are several coastal & in-land hikes
Qué distingue a esta propiedad
This home gives a rare glimpse into the past - when you first arrive in the Village, you will feel like you have stepped back in time as many of the homes have mantianed their original designs. Nature is all around you - bird lovers will enjoy spotting Eagles, Herons, Willets, rare shore birds and coastal ducks to name a few.
In 2012 Marshwind was featured as a key location in the Hallmark movie 'Christmas with Holly', using shots from both the inside and outside of our home. Many movies have been shot in our beautiful village over the years.
